I don't know that there is an "official" name, but following the Greek model of most phobia names, fear of circuses should be kuklophobia. Greek letters can be transliterated into English in more than one way, so other possible spellings would be kyklophobia or cyclophobia. "Circus" is actually Latin for "circle." The Greek word for a circle is "kyklos" and presumably that would have been their word for a circus except they didn't have circuses the way the Romans did.
